Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine maple syrup, bourbon, fresh orange juice, Dijon mustard, and whole grain mustard (if using). Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to low and simmer for 5-10 minutes until glaze thickens.
- Pour 1 cup of water into the bottom of your slow cooker. Place the spiral sliced ham cut side up in the slow cooker.
- Carefully pour the prepared maple glaze over the ham, ensuring it drizzles into the crevices between the slices.
- Cover the slow cooker and set on low heat. Cook for approximately 2.5 to 3 hours until it reaches an internal temperature of 140°F, basting with glaze once or twice.
- For a sticky finish, transfer the ham to a baking dish, brush with reserved glaze, and broil for 3-5 minutes.

Notes
Consider preparing the glaze the night before to save time. Basting every 30 minutes adds flavor and achieves a sticky finish.
